Have any cringy stories?

During games of flag football in PE, I had a bad habit of pulling people's pants down by accident when I tried to get their flag. To be fair, a lot of them already had their pants sagging, so it was hard not to.

XD Reading all of those made me laugh so much, my face hurts.

The stories about throwing up in class made me remember one of the times that happened to me.. I was in 7th grade and I had been sick for like the past week but I thought that I might be able to make it through the day. So I walked in to first period and saw that we had a substitute (wow, funny coincidence that so many cringy moments happened to me in the presence of a substitute teacher). My class was reading the book "Call of the Wild" and I started to get really dizzy. I quickly stood up and ran to the other side of the room where the trash can was and I threw up. The class had gone silent and everyone was watching me. After about 30 seconds I walked over to get a tissue, wiped my mouth off, and calmly walked back to my seat and sat back down.

The substitute just sort of squinted in my direction and told the rest of the class to keep on reading.

I made it through the rest of the day though, and looking back on it I probably should've gone to the nurse or asked if I could go home. It's kind of weird that the substitute didn't do anything about it though.

I remember a time in, I think it was 3rd or 4th grade maybe? it recess and i was feeling very queezy so I went near the restrooms but i couldn't hold it in so i puked near the entrance and it was A LOT luckily nobody was around so i just casually walk away. I went back maybe 15 mins later and it was gone. The janitor must have cleaned it up

Online I used to think being manipulative was a cool villain quality so I'd say cringey things like, "I can twist people's minds and I'm really good at it." If I could go back and slap myself I would. Please, you're too shy and friendly to do something like that. I know I'm kind of contradicting myself using an Izaya avatar who is a manipulative little **** in Durarara, but come on who doesn't love him?

I have a lot but this is the first story that comes to mind.

3rd grade: I was obsessed with Teen Titans and I would go online to watch videos relating to it (When I was in third grade, it was around 2005/2006/2007). I found this one video where they used footage from Teen Titans and put this inappropriate song titled "The Internet is for Porn" over the sound. Since I was in third grade, I didn't know what porn was and I thought it was a type of corn or something so I thought the song was hilarious. I ended up writing the lyrics down on a piece of paper and showed my friend at school because I thought the song was so good that he should listen to it too. I ended up losing the paper and my teacher found it later that day and yelled out to the class, "Who's is this?!". My friend told her it was mine and I got into a lot of trouble. I ended up having to go to the guidance councilor's office for a few months because they thought something was wrong with me.

Honestly, third grade was not my favorite year.

Oh my gosh I laughed so hard at this XD

Oh I remember another time it happened this year it was 1st period it was the day of finals the teacher had nothing planned so i got on my phone and went into an app and i had my sound blasting loud so you heard it throught the class room and everyone looked it my direction and I just sunk into my chair

so much cringe

My early Animal Crossing Wi-Fi days were full of cringe. I once stole someone's hybrid flower so I could send them back through a letter as a gift. She thought it was cute but, looking back, what a ridiculous thing to do. Even more ridiculous to think those letters actually sent. 90% seemed to go missing.

Please don't use this thread (or any other thread really) to insult or make negative comments regarding another user.

Thanks

I don't have any cringey stories.
But this is me when I read all your posts.

Remember when I thought portmanteau couple names were just mishmashes of the two characters being shipped together...

there was this one time in fourth grade when i felt really sick... i got inside my classroom and literally stood beside the trash can for a few minutes until my teacher came inside. i ate some breakfast (bad idea), i didn't really like it so i threw it out. i ate a little, so we got started with the lesson and i just throw up out of nowhere. i didn't have a trash can beside my desk (idk why) so i threw up on the floor and got a little on the desk lol. everyone just starts laughing & i remember the guy i liked was there which made it worse bc he was laughing too. so i got cleaned up & my friend took me to the nurse and i just felt really bad the rest of the day when i went home because i kept thinking about how weird that was, and felt worse when i remembered the laughing

i think it's really cringe now that i think about it.

It's been a while since I was in High school but I still cringe when I remember this:

I sneezed very hard and kinda flew out of my chair with it - while in mid air, I "tooted" !!! ... If that wasn't embarrassing enough with the teacher and whole class staring and laughing, my bf who was sitting beside me, thought it would be hilarious to grab his throat and fall off his chair choking and gasping!!

Yep! Still cringing at that memory

The second hand shame is real.

XD I'm glad this thread is still alive because I have plenty more stories.

I had biology first period last year and I always listen to music while I'm walking to school. I walked into my classroom and sat down. After a couple minutes I took out my earbuds only to discover that in addition to playing through my earbuds, they were also playing through my teacher's bluetooth speakers. No one knew who was playing the music, either, but I never got caught.

Told this a few times, but never actually posted it here...

Okay, so some context: In Portland, and all cities really, particularly downtown and on campus, there are always people trying to get you to sign things. Usually petitions to change laws, or giving information so you can register to vote (at the appropriate times). This happened around the time of the primaries a few months ago. Also, I'm registered to vote (which is important).

These people are extremely pushy and annoying and I hate them all. And if you do that sort of thing, never speak to me.

My sister and I are headed into a bookstore downtown, when just before we get inside, somebody on the street corner out front tries to get me to sign something. Me, thinking that it she was trying to register people to vote, I tell her I was already registered. Turns out, it was some kind of petition and she tried to explain it to us. I'm like awkwardly walking/shimmying(?) away from her as I keep telling her I'm not interested.

She tries to raise her voice and keep talking to us as we walk into the store. We shop for about thirty minutes or so, and as we're leaving I notice they've posted another girl outside the front door.

I decide that in order to avoid this girl, I'll tell her that I'm not registered to vote.

You know.... like a liar.

We step outside and of course, the girl asks me if I'm registered to vote. And, I say no. But then, the girl on the street corner overhears us, whips around, AND POINTS DIRECTLY AT ME!

She points at me and yells, "LIAR!!!"

So, I do what any normal person would do.... I begin to laugh.

I just started laughing and kinda speed walked away until I was a few blocks down the street.
